Hello.

Who is the best doctor to correct gynecomastia ?

Jacobs, Delgado, Pope, Jeffords, Bermant, etc..

Any anyone share their experience or PM me a private message on their experiences.

I am guessing that each doctor had their own style and technique.

I would like to have the best end result with the least amount of discomfort during a safe procedure.

Since this is such a major decision, I do not mind flying to any doctor f it means a better job done.

Can anyone recommend a good Doctor for this?

Thanks for your help.

Here is a similar post that I answered quite some time ago:

Hey guys i live in NC and i didnt see any surgeons listed on the main site that are in north carolina... Anyone else live NC that had a gyne surgery by a doc in NC? 

I know Dr. Bermant lives in VA which isnt to far away... has anyone had a surgery done by him?  Did you get exactly what you wanted?

We see patients from around the world for a consultation and most start out with out Preliminary Remote Discussion.  The cost of this evaluation includes an in office for those who either plan surgery or need the in person examination as part of the evaluation.  I do not operate on every patient who has a consultation.  This evaluation is a discussion of risks, benefits, and alternate methods of care.  Jane is my office manager and can explain the process.  She can normally be reached at our office by phone Monday - Friday 9-5 Eastern Time at (804) 748-7737.

Here is a post I put up a while ago:

I live about 6 hours away from Dr. Bermant - is it possible to get gyno  surgery done that far away?

Or will it be too hard to go back and forth?

How many times would i have to see him after the surgery?

thanks
We see patients from around the world, many much further than 6 hours away. So far this morning, I have talked with and or seen patients from Florida, Montana, New York, and Virginia.  I just recieved an email from one of our patients from Australia.  It was just a picture of him now smiling.  That felt really good, seeing that smile.

Follow-up after surgery depends on the problem to be treated and can be as short as the day after with telephone dressing removal to more frequent office visits for more complex cases.

You can learn more about Gynecomastia and Travel here.  Follow-up depends on the problem to be treated and varies from patient to patient. It can range from just the day after surgery to about 6 days for most cases.  More complicated problems need more after surgery care.  Such issues are best explored during a consultation.

Almost all of my patients move on with their lives, put their gynecomastia days behind them.  Some do stay on the forums a while to help others.  Many more do not post at all.

You can find many other gynecomastia patient experiences posted on that page and follow the arrows to many more.

I also posted details how to Pick a Gynecomastia Surgeon here:

ALL of the doctors mentioned can provide excellent results for you.  Each may have a different method of approaching your particular gyne problem, but what counts is the final result and how easy it was to get to the final result.

I am very pleased to have been included in the group mentioned.  I do have patients coming to me from all over the world -- including Europe, the Middle East, China, Australia and of course North and South America.  As a means of facilitating surgery for my out of town patients, and as a courtesy to members of gynecomastia.org, I am pleased to offer a free evaluation of their problem (after receipt of appropriate medical information and photographs).

If anyone wants to take advantage of this offer, please send me your name and email address via a PM and I will reply with lots of information.  I personally handle all requests and emails sent to me.
